Jonathan Wills, a 6-5 senior small forward from Southern California, gives us an update on his recruitment. He tells us he's hearing from schools in the Big West, WCC and Mountain West, among other programs...

Jonathan Wills, 6-5 SR SF Lakewood (Calif.) Mayfair, told us recently that he's been hearing from UC Santa Barbara, San Francisco, Cal State Northridge, Long Beach State and Colorado State since the end of July.

"Northridge, Long Beach State and Colorado State have offered," said Wills. "My coach told me that Washington State, Oregon State and St. John's are supposed to call."

We asked Wills what he is looking for in a school.

"The environment, the people and early playing time," said Wills.

Wills has yet to set up any official visits, but said that USF has discussed coming in for an in-home visit. "Also, I might take an unofficial to Santa Barbara this week or next week," said Wills.

Wills said he's not sure about the timing of his choice.

"If it happens, and I like the offer, I'll get it over with in November," said Wills. "If not, I'll wait."
